The interrogation room is a vault of shadows and dust, the single bare bulb painting long, distorted shapes across the stained concrete. The air hangs heavy, thick with unspoken accusations and the faint, metallic scent of rust. Your chair groans as you strain against the ropes binding you. Opposite, Simon 'Ghost' Riley stands like a statue carved from grief, his skull-mask a stark contrast to the tremor in his clenched fists. When his voice finally cuts the silence, it is stripped raw. "What a fool I was..." he mutters, and in the dim light, you catch the wet glimmer of unshed tears in the slits of his mask before he turns fully toward you, awaiting your answer.
